When Jesus sent out the twelve disciples to proclaim the Kingdom of God and heal the sick, He instructed them to take nothing for the journey except the tunic on their back and sandals on their feet.

Since its humble beginnings in 2016, The Seeds has earned recognition for running programmes that are relevant and responsive to the needs of today’s youth. While some members balance day jobs and volunteer, others, like Jonathan, serve as full-time missionaries. As a result, they rely entirely on God’s gracious providence for their sustenance.

However, Jonathan was uncertain whether it was the Holy Spirit prompting him or if it stemmed from his own ego. To discern his calling, he embarked on a spiritual journey. Initially, he sought clarity on his own through daily devotion, immersing himself in the Word of God. He also turned to his long-time friend Paul Julianose for guidance, asking him to help identify whether his motives and intentions were inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Lovingly dubbed ‘the Indian Jesus’. Jonathan submitted himself to intense self-reflection sessions via zoom with Fr Robin who acted as his spiritual director for ten days. It is common knowledge that all big companies have policies in place for situations like this which can make it challenging for employees to leave. So now, Jonathan found himself in a legal situation. The terms of his contract required him to pay the remainder of the bond within the next two years. That would mean, he would have to come up with RM 1,800 a month for 24 months. Jonathan felt that this payment plan was too much for him to bear.

Jonathan’s friends in the HR department not only helped with appealing his case but took it upon themselves to gather all the relevant documents he would need for his appeal. In essence, Jonathan didn’t have to lift a finger for his appeal. Then, miraculously, the legal department agreed to Jonathan’s suggestion of the payment plan which gave him the green light to put in his resignation letter.
